Modalità di verifica dell’apprendimento e criteri di valutazione
Assignments (not mandatory):
Assignments using exam.net: maximum 2 points.
P% = percentage of points compared to total points (considering all homework)
It is necessary to have done at least half of the homework
P% >= 75% 2 points
P% >= 45% and < 75% 1 points
P% >0 and < 45% 0.5 points
-----
Written test
6 multiple choice answers = 2 points for each correct answer;
2 multiple choice answers = 4 points for each correct answer;
2 open answers = 6 points for each correct answer.
Minimum (threshold) =18 points
maximum = 32 points
........................................................................................
Project (not mandatory)
3 points if basic requirements are met
